Vijay Mallya who is facing fraud and money laundering charges had interacted with podcaster Raj Shamani recently. He spoke on all the topics he talked about for many years. The discussion about his podcast started surfacing on social media platforms this morning.  While replying to Harsh Goenka’s post Vijay Mallya claimed that the banks had recovered Rs 14100 crores from him. In his post Mallya thanked Goenka for speaking in his favour and added that he has been facing “blatant discrimination”. Harsh Goenka’s Post On Vijay Mallya Taking a part in ongoing discussion Chairman of RPG Enterprises Harsh Goenka stated ‘’Vijay Mallya lived the high life yes. Defaulted yes.  Unlike most others his ₹9000+ crore dues are now reportedly settled. Meanwhile bigger defaulters walk free with much fatter haircuts from banks. If dues remain the banks should clearly say so. If not why is he still a political punching bag? Justice must be fair not selective.’’  https://x.com/TheVijayMallya/status/1930583843490222085 Vijay Mallya’s Reaction On Post The former owner of Kingfisher Airlines and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) wrote ‘’Thank you Harsh. The Union Finance Ministry has confirmed in writing that Banks have recovered Rs 14100 crores from me against a DRT judgement debt of Rs 6203 crores. Why the blatant discrimination ?’’ On this Goenka responded with a folded hands emoticon. Netizens Reaction On Discussion User name Gargi Rawat said ‘’This is true sir. But as you stated he’s a political punching bag.’’ Another user named as Mahesh Poddar said ‘’We often forget he created world class airline KINGFISHER in no time. Many airlines failed like this too. Appreciate your public stance.’’ Disagreeing with them another user named Balkrishnan B R said ‘’Just to remind you Vijay Mallya is also walking free  and still living the high life in the UK. UK is a safe haven for all our criminals.’’
